variable home interest

A variable home interest rate can either save you money or cost you money.  It all depends if you think interest rates will fall or rise over the term of your home loan.  For example, you will pay a premium to fix your interest rates, but if interest rates rise above this premium, then you are ahead.  The opposite is true if interest rates fall, you will be stuck paying the higher rates or possibly face large fees to break the fixed interest rate contract.  A variable home interest loan means your interest rate will float with the rise and fall of interest rates
